Justification of Red List category
This species has a very small range and occurs at only few localities. Significant areas of habitat remain, but it is presumably declining in response to changing agricultural practices and conversion of habitat. The remaining population is estimated to be very small and divided into small subpopulations. The species is therefore listed as Endangered.
